What is Copy Trading?

Copy trading allows you to automatically mirror the trades of experienced Polymarket traders. When a leader you follow places a trade, SafeArbitrage instantly executes the same trade in your account.

Step 1: Create Your Account

Go to **Accounts** → **Import**

Enter your private key (encrypted and stored locally)

Verify the import was successful

Step 2: Find Leaders to Follow

Navigate to the **Leaders** section to browse top-performing traders:

Sort by profit percentage, win rate, or total volume

Review their trading history and market preferences

Check their risk profile and average position size

Step 3: Configure Copy Trading

Create a new copy trading configuration:

Select Leader: Choose the trader you want to follow

Template & sizing: Ratio or fixed amount per mirrored trade, plus optional per-order min/max caps

Market filters: Optionally limit which markets are copied

CryptoTail (optional): Use CryptoTail strategies when you need automated stop-loss / take-profit style exits — basic copy templates focus on mirroring, not standalone SL/TP rules

Step 4: Monitor Performance

Once activated, you can monitor your copy trading performance in real-time:

View synchronized orders and their status

Track P&L for each copy trading configuration

Use in-app / browser notifications to track order updates while logged in

Tips for Success

**Start small** — Begin with a small position size and increase gradually

**Diversify leaders** — Follow multiple leaders with different strategies

**Size carefully** — Start with conservative ratios and caps; add CryptoTail if you need SL/TP-style automation

**Monitor regularly** — Check performance weekly and adjust configurations
